Queen City Hemp CBD Seltzer

CINCINNATI, OH., Jan. 9, 2019 – Queen City Hemp, the Cincinnati-based company responsible for creating the first CBD seltzer brand in the U.S., today announced expanded product availability from 21 to all 50 states. With the launch of a new online storefront, consumers from coast to coast will be able to order Queen City Hemp CBD Seltzer by the case with free shipping nationwide.

With consumer interest in CBD-infused beverages on the rise, Queen City Hemp CBD Seltzer remains the first and only truly Guilt-Free CBDTM wellness drink in the category: free of sugar, sodium, caffeine, calories and artificial flavors. Available in four great-tasting, trendy flavors – Guava, Blood Orange, Lemon Lavender and Passion Fruit – these infused seltzers deliver the wellness benefits of cannabis without the “high.” Each 12-ounce can contains 5 MG of full- spectrum, U.S. grown, hemp-derived CBD.

“As America’s first CBD Seltzer brand, we’ve made it a priority from day one to deliver clean, premium, hemp-derived products that people feel good about consuming,” said Nicholas Balzer, co-founder and CEO of Queen City Hemp. “Our infused seltzers provide all-natural energy without a caffeine or sugar crash, making them a great alternative to sodas, coffee or energy drinks. We’ve seen a steady increase in consumer demand since we launched in 2015, and we’re thrilled to be one of the first CBD beverages with a nationwide footprint.”

CBD, or cannabidiol, is one of over 100 phytocannabinoids found in cannabis and hemp plants. Unlike THC (tetrahydrocannabinol), hemp-derived CBD is non-psychoactive, and legal in all 50 states. CBD has become an increasingly popular natural dietary supplement and wellness remedy.

Queen City Hemp CBD Seltzer can be purchased online at www.QueenCityHemp.com as a four- flavor mixed case (24 cans) for $99 with free shipping nationwide, and at retail locations in 21 states (see website for a list of retailers). The company also offers a variety of high-quality, natural CBD tinctures, vapes and topical salves for purchase online or at retail locations – all rigorously tested for precise potency and quality.

A special limited-edition lime flavor, The Lazarus Lizard, is currently available at select retail locations in Ohio while supplies last. Inspired by Cincinnati folk lore of the lizard, a portion of The Lazarus proceeds will be donated to the Civic Garden Center of Greater Cincinnati.
